Yes well worth a look Richard, and well done WARA. Nice to see some positive publicity. And I think this reinforces the need for F-Class to stick closely with TR - despite our move to scopes and rests, the underlying character of our sport does not need to differ from TR.

Great to see ABC cover the story and the people being interviewed did a great job of it.
Why can't the ABC cover all states shooting sports in there sports round up.
It is so easy for the media to turn stories like this around into a negative outlook that the anty gun loby pick up and blow out of all proportion.

Great story, I was waiting for seeing it on the TV, but didn't happen AFAIK.

We need more stories like this to show our sport in a positive light.

We should all follow the link and then followup and report to the media that they did a great job...sort of give them a pat on the back...that way they might be more inclined to drag the cameras to a range near you as well.

But yes, we need all the positive advertising we can get.
